14,752,811 people have extolled you as a leader to create a massively compelling vision that will draw people into a much better future.
I made that number up; I don’t know how many people have said this, but it’s a big number.
It can be difficult to create and sustain a compelling vision. There is positive energy associated with it, but I observe that it’s rarely enough to keep everyone on track for long. How are those New Year’s resolutions?
A useful alternative is to spend 30 minutes with a notebook and write out all the things you don’t want. What you fear. What you hate. That’s an anti-vision – and the negative energy associated with it can help you move in the opposite direction.
This strategy is fractal. It works at personal, family, community, organization, and national levels.
